Phonics

Children have been working hard and now know most of the Phase 2 and some Phase 3 sounds.  

This year the children are learning Cued Articulation actions to go with the sounds.  This video shows you how to make the sound actions. 

Maths

Children in Year R will be learning their numbers to 10.  We are going to be introducing the Numberblocks characters to support their learning so why not get your child to sing the songs or play they games.
